Add new RPC method to get the chain type (#5576)

* Add new RPC method to get the chain type

This adds a new RPC method to get the chain type of the running chain.
The chain type needs to be specified in the chain spec. This should make
it easier for tools/UI to display extra information without needing to
rely on parsing the chain name.

* Update client/rpc-api/src/system/mod.rs
